While demonstrators poured into airports to protest the Trump administration’s draconian immigration policies, another presidential memorandum signed this weekend may have even more lasting, wide-ranging and dangerous consequences. The document sounds like a simple bureaucratic shuffle, outlining the shape the National Security Council will take under President Trump. Instead, it is deeply worrisome. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/the-danger-of-steve-bannon-on-the-national-security-council/2017/01/29/ba3982a2-e663-11e6-bf6f-301b6b443624_story.html?utm_term=.96c66d00911f |

No, protecting american citizens from Islamic terrorism makes no sense whatsoever, if you are an appeasement based liberal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKHUGvde7KU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDYy_LF4iE4 Edited by Alt Right PEPE, Jan 30 2017, 09:35 AM.

This guy has no national security background of any significance. Zero. Yet he's going to be the President's primary security adviser while those with actual national security backgrounds are no longer be participating in the meetings unless it is regarding their "area of expertise"? That's a load of horse fecal matter. This bozo isn't going to make America safer, how can he? He has no freaking clue. Editing Briebart does not count as national security background. |

Including Bannon is obviously worrisome. I can't fathom what he could contribute to a national security meeting and I'm sure I don't want to know. Frankly, he's not fit to be a janitor at the White House and given some of the things he's said about government, he probably shouldn't even have a security clearance. Just as bad is that, while presidents always have a political strategy guy, they never come to NSC meetings. That would be even if Bannon were a normal human - which he's not. Bush specifically made sure Karl Rove never went anywhere near an NSC meeting. Obama did the same with David Axelrod. Political guys aren't supposed to be in on NSC gatherings. The other odd thing is the exclusion of anyone from intelligence or the military (save for the Defense secretary) which is just weird. How is the NSC supposed to function without our main intel people or any uniformed military? What will they discuss exactly? Football scores? |

Um...would you people (yes you people) at least do a little homework before going on a pearl clutching vituperation. Bannon was an officer in the United States Navy for seven years in the late 1970s and early 1980s, serving on the destroyer USS Paul F. Foster as a Surface Warfare Officer in the Pacific Fleet and stateside as a special assistant to the Chief of Naval Operations at the Pentagon. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Bannon :oyvey |
